Thanks all for a great year - and here's to another! Couldn't have built my dream without your invaluable advice, insight, infinite patience and tolerance. I truly believe I saved tens of thousands of dollars relying on your guidance. What a long, strange trip from concept to fulfillment.
Thanks Meisters.
TJ

I've been waiting to provide a full account of the projects - I have some pics unfortunately I missed most of the process due to travel with work - but can show a before and after. Sounds like a nice Winter project - I owe you all at least this much.

"...I saved tens of thousands of dollars..."
You did stock smallies right?

Honestly, at least that much. My ideas for construction of my projects were so far off the mark it would have cost me that much to redo everything I messed up. Thanks to Bruce for walking me thru every step.
Smallies go in this Spring....I will provide a detailed overview of each pond and my plans for the future...promise.

Whooosh - the sound of that inside joke flying miles above my head...
BISA - British International Spa Association?
Thanks for trying to let me in boys - I just can't seem to walk thru the door!

Holy crap - this is truly an honor, gentlemen - even better than an offer to join the other BISA. Pasty, pruny English bathers doesn't really appeal to me anyhow. Consider the invitation accepted. When does the hazing commence?

Back in Fubai, he would have been killed the second he knocked on that door. I would have snapped his neck like a twig. And he never would have seen it coming, either.....
Is that from one of the Sheen brothers back in the 80's?

teehjaeh57 took my advice when I told him that he'd need lots of snakeheads to control his zebra mussels.
Holding a redear sunfish is like running with scissors.

Jeez Condello some friend you are. Now Teehjaeh is going to have to get alligators to control the snakeheads, hippos to control the alligators, lions to control the hippos, elephants to control the lions, mice to control the elephants, cats to control the mice. His feed bill is gonna go through the roof!
